Thank you very much for adding the values and edge control in the captions as well as not speeding the video up. This video showed me how to get passed "ugly" phase of the process right after putting in the division between the shadow and lit areas. My edge control is bad. Very helpful.

@Nicolas Torin happy to help :D

very methodical approach in explaining creating the facial features from scratch. It is very important for beginners how to have precise proportions without using the square method. I am experimenting with creating monochrome black and white portraits. Have done many pencil sketches in the past but using black and white paints, brushes and medium are way different than working with pencils and erasers. It is always good to learn new techniques anyways. Thanks for the video.

Pity you speeded up the end... I was really enjoying watching the painting in real time. Terrific!!! Thanks.

wow, such disciplined painting. not a brush stroke wasted. impressive!

Great Skill, and a fine approach. I appreciated the discipline involved in reserving values until you moved on to the next, saving highlights and darkest darks for last. Brilliant.

that is why it is pretty hard to make a default black paint when it comes to portrait. Better make use of your own mix of black! tho of course it still depends on how you want the painting outcome. enjoyed the video!

What's with the ending? Why the rush?

Would you use the same paint colours when using a glaze for colour afterwards or would you prefer to use say raw umber, white and ultra marine blue perhaps then?

@zinlimart

+PHeMoX I haven't color glaze over black/white monochrome but rather like earth tone monochrome under painting in case for glazing with color.

Hi again, I got another question! at 25:20 you start blending. I was wondering if thats because you started using a medium? Im new to oil painting, started just like a week ago... so I was wondering if from the beggining were you using mediums, or at 25:20 ? Really thanks for these videos. And sorry for two questions!

Hello. Do you think liquin would work for a painting like this instead of linseed oil? Also, did you do this in one sitting, or did you wait for layers to dry. I’m very new and trying to get into oil paints, thank you.

Hi! I am new to this but really interested in an amateur way. I don't understand the edge control.. Do you just use a new color that is in between the lighter and the darker shades or a different brush or both? Thanks for all you efforts in putting this video together for us to enjoy!

Hi Zin. First of all thank you so much for the educational videos. Will I have big problems doing this exercise without any medium at all ? I mean, the paint will be too sticky ? I am alergic and I have heard about people painting without any medium at all, only strait out of the tube. My only experience is with watercolor. Second, becoming a patron will I have access to this full video in real time, without the speed up on the end ? Thank you so much . (sorry any english mistake)
